Don Dunston was SA premier for almost all of the 1970s. His major achievement was to drag SA, kicking and screaming, into the 1960’s. Vale.

It’s interesting that I’m seeing far more negative One Nation media coverage in the Murdoch media than in 7West media, especially the West Australian. (Mark Riley being a prominent outlier) It’s almost as if the word has come down from on high regarding the editorial treatment of ON.

Paul Kelly is partly correct to call out Pauline Hanson and ON in that she has nothing to offer people when it comes to cost of living etc. nothing. But while the LNP play the fight/ join game, it’s the ALP pointing out the sham of PHON being on the side of the battler. #onenationsham #auspol

Yesterday in the West Australian. And last week in the Saturday paper where he outlines the plan to combat One Nation. I don’t think that the ALP should be taking advice from Chris Dore.

Once, we would have looked at this sort of stuff in the communist dictatorships (Stalin, North Korea, China) and talk about to collapse of free will, the blatant sycophancy etc. and how the free west would never stoop so low. Well, here we are.

Nothing is stopping our well-paid university leaders from having second jobs — even with organisations that benefit from the university. Is this the kind of industry we want?

The thing about the LNP inability to oppose “monocturalism” pr back multiculturalism a worry. Let me spell it out. It appears that they want to settle on a policy position that is essentially racist. But they don’t want to spell it out so that they will be called out as racist. #auspol

Surprised/not surprised that Pauline Hanson want to defund/disband the ABC and SBS. At the same time she is trying to maintain a facade of nit being racist by promoting “mono-culturalism”. The thing is the ABC and SBS produce more Australian content than all the commercial outlets in total. #auspol
